Portugal. Praia de Mira.
Olhar e ver means to look and see.

A beautiful dory(?) and a very forbidding ocean. Lovely image.

Excelente prespectiva do "guerreiro". As cores fortes contrastam com as suaves do mar, mas o mar não esconde a sua natureza, ameaçando a terra com aquelas ondas.

I love the colors and the composition of the shot! I can almost feel the breeze in my face looking at the boat. Great shot! :)

Indeed, it looks like a challenging sea. Love the proportion you've given to the boat!

The sea is a bit rough for such a small boat.... splendid image Antonio.

Gosto do contraste do colorido do barco com a "frieza" do mar revolto. As cordas à esquerda ajudam a completar o quadro. Bom trabalho António!

Smiles . . that surf does look a little wild although I suspect that boat is more solid and robust than it looks . . those old designs have proved themselves time and time again.

Le contraste du bateau très coloré contre le ciel et la mer grise, est saisissant!

I like very much this boat colored in front of the threatening sea, the taken out reams, him, it is ready to face the wide. All this, thanks to a beautiful framing and to a correctness in the precision of the photo Bravo ;)

A simply exquisite photograph, depicting a scene of such beauty. The boats intensity really amplifies the scene. Superb

Belle photo d'un bateau qui a une très belle forme ! J'aime beaucoup le gris de la mer et son côté un peu démonté qui fait un petit paradoxe avec la tranquillité que l'on ressent en voyant le bateau !
